Father Nathan's guest this week is his nephew, Andrew Monks. Andrew shares his culinary journey, highlighting that pursuing one's passion with purpose can lead to joy.
Andrew is a classically trained chef with a taste for adventure!
His career as a chef has allowed him to live and work across many remote and beautiful corners of the globe, immersing himself in an array of different cultures and cuisines.
Andrew now calls remote Western Australia home and lives with his wife, Mel, and Stock, the border collie. They both work as educators: Andrew passing on his experience and love of the Culinary Arts, and Mel at the other end of the education spectrum, teaching Kindergarten.
Andrew and Mel continue to travel, teach, and inspire the next generation to open life's windows and let joy in.
